The "Porteur de raie" is a perfect illustration of the quality of Mathurin Méheut's work. The composition depicts a figure from port life, laden with large fish, treated with a graphic force and a tension of gesture characteristic of Méheut's art. The combination of ethnographic observation and decorative sense gives the piece a presence that is both lively and sculptural, emblematic of the aesthetic of the Service de la mer.
